Here's a video for Water.org, the water crisis non-profit co-founded by Matt Damon, in which Damon holds a press conference to swear off going to the bathroom until developing countries have safe drinking water and sanitation.

Earlier this year, Todd Glass came out on WTF. He explained much of the impetus in doing so was to set an example and to communicate to kids and teenagers that it's ok to be gay. He spoke about how every time he heard about a kid committing suicide, he felt partially to blame. The above video channels a lot of this message and features the passion that is to be expected from Todd.
